I want to be known as a husband to Lauralea. A dad to my kids, papa to my grandchildren and just a guy who followed Jesus.
I've been helping churches get healthier for a long time, and usually that's about praying and staying a long time in the same place.

Life on the Canadian prairies can be brutal

He also appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, the RCMP said.But because of his injuries, he wasn't able to speak until about eight hours later.When he did speak to investigators at around 1:30 p.m., he asked about his daughters.Police went back to search on the Kelvington-area reserve and found the three-year-old girl's body between the man's home and another house, about 400 metres away from where the man was found.The girl was wearing only a T-shirt and a diaper, the RCMP said.
